Just curious, why Sunday?

I like the setup of TJ, Z and Beede as Right-Left-Right.  So to start the season, I like Ty as the Sunday guy.  I could see Corbs switching him to Friday as the year goes on, but I also have supreme confidence in Pec as Mr. Reliable.  I expect him to also have a great year (7 or 8 Friday wins, ERA around 3.00).  Z is the X-factor.  If he puts it together, there is no filthier stuff on the staff (except maybe Jared's slider).  If he doesn't, Beede will jump him to Saturday by mid-Season and we'll go Right-Right-Left.

As a further note, the real problem with Sunday is that that is the game you're at risk of losing to a rain out.  You don't worry much about your Friday or Saturday guys not being able to pitch in a weekend, but you can lose the Sunday guy.  Fortunately and as a means of mitigating the risk, the SEC is very liberal about moving Sunday games to Saturday double-headers when weather reports so warrant.
